Sharks v Crusaders will be played 27th March at Twickenham. Will be played 16:00 (Local Time) 18:00 SA Time.
Will The Crusaders continue their recent dominance of their opponents or will The Sharks commitment on Defence, Strong pack and Lambie's boot give The Sharks a win against, in my opinion the team to beat at the moment in Superrugby?
My thoughts from a Sharks perspective-
How to Beat Crusaders?
-Must limit mistakes, get clean ball from lineouts, scrums and rucks
-Disciplined Defence
-Play as much of the rugby in their half as possible
-Must be quick to the breakdown to secure good ball
-Looseforwards must come across fast in defence especially in the centre channels
-Put pressure on Carter...rush on from Charl Mcloed
-Rush defence with wings covering with scrumhalf behind first line of defence
-take all points available...if it is kickable take it
-Commitment will also be key on defence and at getting to the breakdowns on own ball
-Play around the finges and keep it tight and swing it wide when an overlap develops.
-Ball retention in Crusaders half will be key to accumulating scoring opportunities.
-If their is an opportunity to kick the ball out...kick it out and keep it tight.
-Put high ball on Maitland.
Good Luck Sharks i know you guys can win it...will be toughest game we have played in a long time. Stand up to the challenge Sharkies!!
Gonna be a great game...i know it is a long shot, but rain rain please stay away. Great sport weekend awaits Hong Kong Sevens, Bafana Bafana against Egypt, Flo Simba heavyweight ***le fight and Obviously Sharks v Crusaders. Woo Hoo!!!!
